After reading this book, you are going to be able - Understand the latest features of ES6 JavaScript and TypeScript. - Build an Angular application from scratch using TypeScript and the Angular command-line interface. - Write code using the paradigm of reactive programming with RxJS and Observables. - Know how to Unit Test Angular using Jasmine, Karma and the Angular Test Bed The first chapter in the course is a quickstart where you dive straight into writing your first Angular application. We use the web editor plunker so you can get started writing code ASAP. In this quickstart, you'll get a 50,000-foot view of the major features of Angular. Then chapter by chapter we go much deeper into each of these features. I'll cover the theory for that feature, using StackBlitz as much as possible so you can try out the code yourself in a browser. You are going to learn all - Typescript & ES6 Javascript. - Components & Binding - Directives - Dependency Injection & Services - Angular Modules & Bootstrapping your Angular application. - SPAs & Routing - Angular CLI - Forms - Reactive Programming with RXJs - HTTP - Unit Testing The ideal student is an existing web developer, with some JavaScript knowledge that wants to add Angular to their skill set. Or perhaps you are an existing Angular 1 developer who wants to level up to Angular 2+. You do need to be comfortable with at least the ES5 version of JavaScript. We'll be using a UI framework called Twitter bootstrap throughout the course but you still must know HTML and some CSS.
It took many months to complete this book as I was practicing the code along. It will be a great read for a beginner. Major day to day used concepts are covered end to end.
Excellent book, will take some time to read through the book, especially if you want to practice or code while you read it, but overall I really liked the book. I have had some Angular experience before reading this book, but the author has nicely explained all important topics so it is a very good book for beginners as well as for experienced Angular developers. I highly recommend this book even in 2021 and I am hoping it will be updated with all the recent changes done up to the latest Angular version.
Very good book. It introduces you to the basic principles and a little beyond. Considering the fact that it is a free book, it is well written and explains things with ease so that it doesn't become tedious. Huge thanks to the author, Asim Hussain.
Beside capturing the essentials of angular a good basic guide to typescript is also provided. Very good beginners guide to developing front end with angular and typescript.
